ADDITIONAL PREPARATION  
Devices which can output the S-  
VIDEO signal (Y/C signal) such as a S-  
VHS VCR  
! Listening to Dolby Digital  
audio  
In order to listen to Dolby Digital audio which is recorded as a  
Dolby Digital programme source (such as a DVD-video disc),  
connect the device and set the DIGITAL-IN as described  
below.  
Connect the device to an EXT terminal other than the EXT-1  
terminal.  
You can choose a video input signal from the S-VIDEO signal  
(Y/C signal) and regular video signal (composite signal). For  
details of how to operate the device, see “S-IN (S-VIDEO  
input)” on page 23.  
Preparation:  
• A device (such as DVD player) with a digital output terminal  
(coaxial or optical) for Dolby Digital is necessary.  
• A coaxial cable or optical cable is necessary to make the  
connections. (Not supplied with the TV)  
T-V LINK compatible VCR  
Be sure to connect the T-V LINK compatible VCR to the  
EXT-2 terminal. If not, the T-V LINK function will not work  
properly.  
• In accordance with the instruction manual which is supplied  
with the device, correctly connect a coaxial cable or optical  
cable to the device’s DIGITAL OUT (digital output) terminal  
and set the device so that the Dolby Digital audio signal is  
output.  
• Correctly connect the device to the EXT terminal in  
accordance with “Connecting the external devices” on  
page 35. However, since the EXT-4 terminal does not work  
with Dolby Digital audio, it cannot be used.  
Note:  
• When connecting a T-V LINK compatible VCR to the EXT-  
2 terminal, be sure to connect the Decoder to the VCR. If  
not, the T-V LINK function may not work properly. After you  
have registered TV channels to the Programme numbers  
(PR), set the DECODER (EXT-2) function for the  
Programme number (PR) to ON in order to unscramble a  
scrambled TV channel. For details of operation, see “Using  
the DECODER (EXT-2) function” on page 34.  
1 Connect the device to the DIGITAL  
AUDIO IN terminal with a coaxial cable 1  
or optical cable 2.  
Connecting headphones  
Connect the headphones with a stereo mini-jack (of 3.5 mm  
in diameter) to the headphone jack at the TV front panel.  
Video/sound signal output from the  
EXT-2 terminal  
or  
You can arbitrarily change over the output of the video/sound  
signal from the EXT-2 terminal. It is useful when you want to  
dub the video/sound from another device on the VCR  
connected to the EXT-2 terminal. For details on how to do this  
operation, see “DUBBING” on page 24.  
Back of the TV  
2 Connect the device and set the EXT  
terminal to DIGITAL-IN in accordance  
with “DIGITAL-IN” on page 23.  
This completes the preparation.  
TV output from the EXT-1 terminal  
The output of video/sound signal of a TV channel you are  
currently viewing is always output from the EXT-1 terminal.  
Note:  
Note:  
• When an optical input and coaxial input are input  
simultaneously, the optical input takes precedence.  
• When the headphones are used, the sound  
becomes normal stereo.  
• This TV does not work with digital audio signals  
other than Dolby Digital audio. If no sound is  
emitted from the speakers, cancel the DIGITAL-IN  
setting and change to normal analog sound.  
• The sound from the EXT terminal set to DIGITAL-IN  
is not output from the EXT-2 terminal.  
• Changing over a Programme number (PR) also changes  
over the TV output from the EXT-1 terminal.  
• The video/sound signal from an EXT terminal cannot be  
output.  
• Teletext programmes cannot be output.

TROUBLESHOOTING  
If a problem arises while you are using the TV, please read this “Troubleshooting” well before you request having the TV  
repaired. You may be able to fix it easily by yourself. For example, if the AC plug is disconnected from the AC outlet, or the TV  
aerial has problems, you may think there is a problem with the TV itself.  
Important:  
• This Troubleshooting guide only covers problems whose cause are not easy to determine. If a question arise when you are  
operating a function, read the page(s) corresponding to the operation of the function well, not this Troubleshooting guide.  
• After you have followed the Troubleshooting description or the operating description of the functions concerned without any  
success, remove the AC plug from the AC outlet and request a repair of your TV. Do not attempt to repair the TV by yourself  
or remove the rear cover of the TV.  
• When a white and bright still image (such as a white dress)  
is displayed on the screen, the white part may look as if it  
were coloured. It is a phenomenon unavoidable due to the  
nature of the picture tube itself, and not due to a TV failure.  
If you cannot turn on the TV  
• Is the AC plug connected to the AC outlet?  
• Is the Power lamp lit? If not, press the Main power button.  
When the picture disappears from the screen, the  
unnatural colours will also disappear.  
No picture/No sound  
• When viewing images from commercially available video  
software products, or videos from videotapes which have  
been recorded improperly, the top of the image may be  
distorted. This is due to the condition of the video signal,  
and not because of malfunction.  
• Have you chosen a TV channel whose reception is  
extremely bad? In this case, the BLUE BACK function will  
be activated, the entire screen becomes blue, and the  
sound is muted. In spite of this, if you want to view the TV  
channel, follow the description “BLUE BACK” on page 25  
to try to change the BLUE BACK function setting to OFF.  
• Have you connected the headphones to the TV?  
Connecting the headphones to the TV causes sounds not  
to be issued from the TV speakers.  
Poor sound  
• Have you adjusted BASS or TREBLE properly? If not,  
follow the description “Sound Adjustment” on page 18 to try  
to adjust them properly.

solve the trouble:  
• Have you attempted to use the remote control at the sides  
or rear of the TV or at a location more than seven meters  
apart from the TV location? Operate the remote control in  
the front of your TV or a location less than seven meters  
from your TV to try to solve the problem.  
Has the TV and aerial been connected properly?  
Has the aerial cable been damaged?  
Is the aerial pointed to the right direction?  
Is the aerial itself faulty?  
• If the TV or aerial receives interference from the other  
devices, stripes or noise may appear in the picture. Move  
such devices as an amplifier, personal computer, or a hair  
drier that can cause interference away from your TV, or try  
changing its location. If the aerial suffers interference from  
a radio tower or high-voltage wire, please contact your  
local dealer.  
• If the TV receives interference from signal reflecting from  
mountains or building, double-pictures (ghosting) will  
occur. Try to change the aerial’s direction or replace the  
antenna with the one with better directionality.

Other concerns  
• When the SLEEP TIMER function operates, the TV is  
automatically turned off. If the TV is turned off suddenly, try  
to press the  
(Standby) button to turn on the TV once  
#
again. At this time, if the TV resumes a normal state, there  
is no problem.  
• When a WSS signal is included in the broadcast signal or  
the signal from an external device, or when the TV is  
receiving a control signal from an external device, the  
ZOOM mode will change automatically. When you want to  
return to the previous ZOOM mode, press the  
button to choose the ZOOM mode again.

• If you bring a magnetised device such as a speaker near to  
your TV, a picture may be warped or unnatural colors  
appear at the corners of the screen. In this case, keep the  
device apart from your TV. If the speakers causes such  
phenomena, use the magnetic-shielded speakers instead.  
• A picture may be tited due to the influence of the earth’s  
magnetism. In this case, use the “PICTURE TILT” on  
page 17 to complete the tilt.  
• It takes a short period of time from the time an operation  
such as changing channels is performed until an image is  
displayed. This is not a malfunction. This is the time  
required for the image to stabilize before it can be  
displayed.  
• The TV may emit a crackling sound due to a sudden  
change in temperature. It does not matter if a picture or  
sound does not show any abnormality. If you hear crackling  
sounds frequently while you are viewing the TV, other  
causes may be assumed. For precautionary purposes,  
request your service technician to inspect it.  
• Touching the screen may cause you feel a slight electric  
shock due to its static electricity. It is an unavoidable  
phenomenon due to the construction of the picture tube. It  
is not a problem with the TV. You can rest assured that this  
static discharge does not have harmful influence over the  
human body.
